Suzy had Nature Center Field School this week for 4 days. She learned about using her 5 senses to interact with nature. It was a great experience.
The kids did not end up going with us to court, which was just as well, since it wasn't anything like I expected it to be. David babysat Emily and James while Suzy was at Field School.
Math:
David did 24B of MUS Pre-Algebra.
Emily did 20A & 20B of MUS Gamma.
James did 3F & Test 2 (I think) of Gamma.
Suzy did 4D of MUS Alpha.
Language Arts:
David read some of his Star Wars encyclopedia-type book and wrote three LONG paragraphs about it. Emily read quite a bit of Bridge to Terabithia and wrote three paragraphs about it. James read Green Eggs and Ham, Ten Apples Up on Top, and a Berenstain Bear book and wrote about each one. He also listened to 8 Magic Tree House audiobooks and Bridge to Terabithia on CD as well. Suzy was read to a little.
All the kids wrote a nice letter to their grandparents.
We did family devotions several days.
All six of us went out to eat at an Asian buffet restaurant for our wedding anniversary. The kids tried some new foods and found out they like eating at this kind of restaurant.

Happy Anniversary! Ours is tomorrow. With gas prices so high, we'll probably just make a trip up to Des Moines... with the kids. :-)
Happy Anniversary!
What a great day of summer home learning! 8 Magic Tree House audios???? Wow! Good for James!
I think the only education around here was watering flowers and feeding rabbits!
Thanks for inspiring me!!
Take the kids to the beach (and garage sale along the way, too!)

Great week! You do really well with getting your kids to write about their reading. I don't seem to do very well with that sort of thing. We love all you can eat Chinese buffets:) Yum! Happy Anniversary...
